Abstract:
Diverticulitis was thought to be a simple complication of an even simpler disease (diverticulosis), but may in fact result from an entirely new set of complex pathologies. Considering diverticulitis is increasing in annual incidence and becoming more prevalent in younger populations, the implications of appropriate management become more vital than ever. This article reviews old and new understandings of diverticulitis and current recommendations for prevention and clinical management.
